Very good for pumps. Mixability is pretty poor but that is to be expected with GMS. No matter how much water I used or how much I shook the bottle there would always be particles floating on the top. Another issue I had was GI stress. I am not sure the mechanism behind it but I always wound up in the bathroom 15 minutes after drinking this. It wasn't unbearable but still not what I wanted preworkout.

Not a fan. Didn't get any pump from it or any added benefits. I rather get other things. Works for others though

Used this product in combo with ArA and Peak Beta+
Initial Ideas: Container was filled to the top but I didn't have a scoop. Used between 6-8g on most days.
Value: N/A Seems decently priced, I picked up from a friend for a trade
Mixability: 2/5 Terrible, Blender, spoon, and every shaker variation I had didnt get the floating particles to dissolve. Even when used with mass amounts of water and BCAAs it was evident and made its way to the top.
Taste: 3/5 Weird but not terrible. Depending on if you use it PWO you will be chewing these particles.
Effectiveness: 4/5 Pumps were provided hands down. Onset was usually about 2 exercises in after my WmUp but would hit right on time for me. Wasn't skin splitting by itself but maybe the amount could have been adjusted to do so.
Overall: 3/5 With all the different "Pump" items out this just fell short for me. Used in combo with ArA for specific purposes from my research and I wasn't disappointed at all, but I am far from impressed. To each their own as I think its a great add in.

I received this as part of a promo from AS. This product is no frills and loaded with pump. I ran it with XFA for emulsification purposes, and at times the pump was painful.. I did feel more hydrated as well. Only drawback is that you have to measure it out yourself. It's also micronized, so it goes down a bit easier (but still with a little almost retching
